Microsoft Promises To Fully Support OOXML… Later

Raul654 writes “OOXML is the word document format that Microsoft rammed through the ISO last year. Last week, we discussed a blog post by Alex Brown, who was instrumental in getting OOXML approved by the ISO. Brown criticized Microsoft for reneging on their promise to support OOXML in the upcoming release of Office 2010, and for its lackadaisical approach to fixing the many bugs which still remain in the specification. Now, Doug Mahugh has responded to Brown’s post, promising that Microsoft will support OOXML ‘no later than the initial release of Office 15.’”
